<P class="title">Switch <B>-MLP</B>- use large memory pages<hr></P>

<p>Use larger memory allocation units, which can improve archiving
and, in some cases, extraction speed. Typically the performance gain
is more significant for bigger compression dictionaries and slower
compression methods.</p>

<p>This switch requires "Lock pages in memory" privilege
and if it is missing, WinRAR proposes to assign it to the current
user account, making it available for other software too.
Windows restart is necessary to activate the newly assigned privilege.</p>

<p>Large memory pages can't be placed to Windows swap file and always occupy
the physical memory. When this switch is present, Windows Task Manager
can display incorrect memory usage values for WinRAR.</p>

<p>This switch is supported by RAR archive format only.</p>
